Un-zip the files to your hard drive to get *.dsk files.  Also download
and unzip the loaddskf.exe program.  Use loaddskf.exe to produce the
install disks for the service pack.

Don't worry that the .dsk files are bigger than the size of your
floppy.  They contain header information that the loaddskf.exe program
strips.  Note that these files are disk images, not program files.
They are useless until you create floppies from them.  You'll need one
floppy for each file to do this.

Once you create the SP, read the README file on disk 1 (or is it disk
0?) before doing anything.

Damian got them from ftp-os2.nmsu.edu.  Look in /pub/os2/2.0/servpak
(I think).  Get the .zip files you need. there are two sets: a set of
14 files for 1.44MB floppies, and a set of 16 files for 1.2MB floppies.
